Definitions

  • the invention relates to a nutritional composition that is useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Further, the invention relates to a nutritional composition that is suitable in the prevention or postponement of a relapse in inflammatory bowel disease patients.
  • IBD inflammatory bowel disease
  • IBD Inflammatory bowel disease
  • CD Crohn's disease
  • UC ulcerative colitis
  • IBD Intra-detiology
  • a subset of commensal enteric bacteria in a genetically susceptible host with disease initiated by environmental triggers.
  • sustained intestinal infections, mucosal barrier defects, mucosal immune dysregulation, and genetic and environmental factors all seem to contribute to the disease process.
  • anti-inflammatory drugs like corticosteroid drugs or mesalazine, antibiotics and, in very severe cases surgery are the preferred choices for treating IBD. While in some cases the above described drugs can already induce clinical remission and reduce intestinal symptoms of IBD, an acute resurgence/re lapse of the symptoms can appear following treatment. For example, in children, Crohn's disease has a chronic relapsing course in which up to 50% of the patients eventually need surgery (Davies, G et al; 1990; Br. J. Surg.; 77: 81-94). The natural clinical course of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by episodes of relapse and remission.
  • IBD inflammatory bowel disease
  • the main treatment goal in IBD is to induce and maintain remission by effective control of the gut inflammatory process.
  • the assessment of the level of resolution of the inflammatory process at the intestinal level remains uncertain in the current clinical practice.
  • Subclinical inflammation and incomplete mucosal healing may still persist at the end of a therapeutic cycle that otherwise can be considered successful from a clinical point of view.
  • An "incomplete" biological remission of the inflammatory process is supposed to represent a higher risk for earlier relapse.
  • IBD inflammatory bowel disease
  • Escherichia coli has been shown to stimulate the release of proinflammatory cytokines, whereas other bacterial species such as Lactobacillus casei and L. plantarum downregulate the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and prevent mucosal damage.
  • prebiotics such as oligosaccharides and probiotics (live nonpathogenic bacteria) in animals and healthy human subjects has proven effective for altering the gut microbiome, suggesting that these strategies may be useful in IBD.

  • a nutritional composition comprising (a) the amino acids threonine, serine, and proline in free form, (b) carbohydrates and proteins comprising whey TGF- Beta, and (c) at least one essential fatty acid for use in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
  • IBD inflammatory bowel disease
  • a nutritional composition comprising (a) the amino acids threonine, serine, and proline in free form, (b) carbohydrates and proteins comprising whey TGF- Beta, and (c) at least one essential fatty acid for use in prolonging remission of IBD in an IBD patient.

Early lesions of recurrent Crohn's disease caused by infusion of intestinal contents in excluded ileum. Gastroenterology 1998; 114:262-7; Geboes K, Dalle I.

The WPAI- CD questionnaire will be self-administered by the study subjects.
  • Stool samples will be obtained at day 0, at week 12 and at week 24 for the measurement of fecal calprotectin levels.
  • C-reactive protein will be assessed at day 0, at week 12 and at week 24.
  • C-reactive protein belongs to the pentraxin family of proteins, is made exclusively in the liver and is secreted in increased amounts within 6 hours of an acute inflammatory stimulus.
  • the plasma level can double at least every 8 hours, reaching a peak after about 50 hours. After effective treatment or removal of the inflammatory stimulus, levels can fall almost as rapidly as the 5-7 -hour plasma half-life of labelled exogenous CRP.
  • the only condition that interferes with the "normal" CRP response is severe hepatocellular impairment.
  • CD is one of the most common conditions associated with major elevations of CRP levels (Vermeire S, Van Assche G, Rutgeerts P. C-reactive protein as a marker for inflammatory bowel disease. Inflamm Bowel Dis 2004;10:661-5). While an elevated CRP value is not specific for any condition, it is a sensitive index of ongoing inflammation, and thus provides a valuable adjunct to a careful clinical assessment. Once a diagnosis has been established, CRP may be used to monitor the subject's response to therapy. Serial CRP measurements are important adjuncts in clinical practice, as CRP levels are not affected by drug therapy or thermoregulatory factors. In CD, CRP levels correspond well to disease activity and treatment efficacy (Vermeire S, Van Assche G, Rutgeerts P. C-reactive protein as a marker for inflammatory bowel disease. Inflamm Bowel Dis 2004;10:661 -5).
